Call for Papers | Perspective : actualité en histoire de l’art, Habiter // Inhabiting, vol. 2021-2

Perspective : actualité en histoire de l’art devotes its no. 2021 – 2 to the ways in which artists, art historians, and their colleagues from neighboring disciplines examine the multiple ways in which one can inhabit or be inhabited, and take on these interrogations in a time when, across the globe, entire populations are confined to their homes. This invitation to revisit the visual and imaginary plasticity of inhabiting calls for a wide variety of approaches, both in terms of thematic and fields of study.
